  • No matter how much the game has changed, the mid range game will always be one of my favorite aspects of the game to teach. It's an art, and it's a place where smarter, craftier, less explosive players can excel. Check out how YOU can do the same.

    i love everything about the mid range. catch&shoot from baseline or offball screens like rip, stepback from baseline like dirk/LA, fake to one dribble pullup like kobe, call for a screen, they read it, so you just go back off the other side of the screen & shoot like kemba. i love doing all of this when i hoop, of course in casual bball it hasn't died but its a shame to not see it that much when you watch NBA games, its def a lost art.

  • @_Maxten
    @_Maxten 4 роки тому +15

    lateral pull up can be very difficult. especially if you do it where you dip the ball from the side to protect it from getting stripped and then you have to get a lil bit of hangtime to balance it back out mid air. its especially difficult when you're fading. it amazes me when kobe does it

    A lot of youtubers say you gotta get your defender to turn their hips but some of y'all won't actually know how to recognize it in-game (mainly because no one talks about it for some reason). I think Tim Martin said it best when he was teaching Trae Young how to attack a defender. He said, if you can see his chest in front of you, you shift him side to side. If you see his shoulder you go as hard as you can at the rim. It's at that point where your defender is forced to turn his hips. If you beat his shoulders and get ahead, he's gonna have to start running after you. Perfect time to pull up, but if you crashing into him, he'll be in a perfect position to just rise up and contest.

    its weird that people think everyone form my era is 3pt heavy. I'm 24 but I came up learning to shoot the model range jumpers not 3s. No coach ever taught me anything from 3, we just shot them when we were open. Everything we learned was free throw line and in. The 3 point happy era started more this last decade rather than with us 90s kids.

    Also, with the Hop Footwork, albeit slower, offers 2 advantages other than what he said:
    1.) Can be a very convincing hesi/fake (change of height+speed, etc.) which..
    2.) also retains explosiveness and elasticity since you are bouncing. Can be used to explode past your defender quickly. Basically like the "float hesi".
    I'm 16, and ever since my ACL Injury, I've been focusing on biomechanics and skills more than raw athleticism. I havent played a 5v5 game for almost 9 months, and I cant right now due to the virus. Please focus on biomechanics especially. Try checking hyperarch mechanism.
